Definitions
- Dispensing device for water-soluble or water-dispersible solid products placed upstream of a shower head or a hand shower.
- the present invention relates to a dispensing device for solid, water-soluble or water-dispersible products placed upstream of a shower head or a hand shower.
- shower users have had two options: either use devices which distribute such products only in liquid form only, or cover themselves with such products before washing or rinsing.
- one of the aims of the present invention is to provide a dispensing device for foaming or scented or washing solid products, which is located upstream of a shower head or a hand shower.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide such a device which does not require any adaptation of existing shower devices.
- a dispensing device for solid, water-soluble or water-dispersible products placed upstream of a shower head or a hand shower which is characterized, according to the present invention, in that it comprises, firstly, a tubular body, one end of which, or first end, is provided with a circular projection and has an internal thread defining a first shoulder, and the other end of which , or second end, is also threaded, in the second place, a cylindrical connecting piece comprising a circular stop and two threads on either side of it, a first thread or external thread whose diameter makes it possible to cooperate with the flexible a shower, and a second thread or internal thread whose diameter allows the screwing of this part in the second end of the body, the end of this internal thread constitutes killing a second shoulder, and by the fact that inside this body and between the first and the second shoulder is defined a chamber, the wall of the body comprising at this level a window for the introduction of a solid product in this chamber
- this dispensing device comprises a first O-ring between the tubular body and the internal thread; a second O-ring is arranged between the window and the circular projection, a third O-ring being placed in the closure ring.
- the connecting piece comprises at the second shoulder a grid.
- FIG. 1 is a front view of a dispensing device according to the present invention
- Figure 2 is a longitudinal section of the object of Figure 1 along the line II - II.
- a dispenser device for solid product comprises a tubular body 1, one end 2 or first end of which is provided with a circular projection 3 and has an internal thread 4 defining a first shoulder 5 inside this tubular body 1
- the dispensing device according to the invention can be fixed at the outlet of a tap or at the back of a hand shower or an apple shower.
- This dispensing device also comprises a cylindrical connecting piece 6 which comprises a circular stop 7 on either side of which are located two threads: a first thread 8, or external thread, allowing the dispensing device to be screwed to the flexible shower, and a second thread 9, or external thread, allowing the connection piece 6 to be screwed into the second end of the tubular body 1.
- the free end of this second thread 9 constitutes a second shoulder 10 .
- tubular body 1 Inside the tubular body 1, it is therefore defined by the internal wall of the latter and the first 5 and second 10 shoulders a chamber 11.
- the tubular body 1 is provided at the level of this chamber 11, more precisely at the first shoulder 5, a window 12 allowing the introduction of a solid water-soluble or water-dispersible product inside this chamber 11.
- the dispensing device comprises a closure ring 14 sliding on the tubular body 1 between the circu ⁇ lar projection 3 and the circular stop 7.
- this dispensing device comprises, in this embodiment, three O-rings • - A first 15 between the internal thread 9 and the corresponding wall of the tubular body 1
- This second O-ring 16 is located in a housing 17 cir-
- a third 18 has on the tubular body 1 between the circular projection 3 and the window 12 it cooperates with the closure ring 14, when the latter covers the
- the closure ring 14 is pushed against the circular stop 7 in order to uncover the window 12 through which is introduces the solid product This then rests l " on the first shoulder 5 Then, the window 12 is closed by sliding the closure ring 14 on the tubular body 1 in the direction of the circular projection 3 when the ring is in abutment against the latter, it covers the window 12 and the third O-ring 18 In this position, the window is sealed by the second 16 and third 18 O-rings which are located 0 on either side of this window 12
- the connecting piece 6 may comprise at the second shoulder 10 a grid 19 to break the jet and create turbulence in the chamber 11 This turbulence makes it possible in particular to better dissolve the solid product present in this chamber 5
- the water-soluble solid product or water dispersible may also comprise, in combination or not, a disinfectant, a bactericidal agent or a therapeutic compound, for example
- the tubular body may in its wall include a water passage allowing short-
- the dispensing device is therefore provided with a means for directing the water either towards the chamber or towards this passage
